GBC Youth: Connecting Teens with Christ
See the YOUTHline!
Why we’re here…
Purpose - To empower teens to LOVE God with all their capacity, to LOVE others, and to LOVE themselves
Mission - Our mission is to know God better and to make God known.
What we normally do…
ENGAGE
[6:00 - 7:30 pm Sundays]
Worship
is not something to watch or attend; it is something to engage. God
calls all of us to genuinely engage God, neighbor, community, and
world, and we seek to do just that at ENGAGE. Open for all 6th-12th
graders, each gathering is filled with activities, music, discussion, a
faith-based lesson, and other worship elements as creative as the
students who are present.
Disciple U
[6:30-7:30 pm
Wednesdays]
There
is only one command Christ gives to any would-be followers,
or disciples: "follow me." At DU we meet to figure out what that looks
like in today's world; this means that we focus heavily on small group
discussion & hands-on responses to Christ' mission here in our own
community and abroad. Guys and girls gather separately (6th-8th) and
together (9th-12th) as we seek to help teens become authentic
Christ-followers.
Sunday School
[10:00 - 11:00 am Sundays]
Because
we believe that Scripture is “inspired by God and useful for teaching,
rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness,” we meet weekly to
study it and connect it to our everyday lives.
